Note Five - So When is anyone going to do anything about what is coming out in the Epstein files. There should be investigation announcements all over the place... if not from the DOJ - which won't happen - then from State AGs!

So Epstein and Nasser were pen pals. I don’t even fucking know what to say anymore.

But I love that this putrid correspondence identifies Trump as a fellow traveler.

Nassar was majorly knifed and nearly killed in prison after joking about underage girls in front of other inmates who apparently did not see the humor.

Good. It’s too bad Nasser and the orange pedo are still breathing.

Notice how Epstein was gaslighting even HIMSELF to the very end about his own motives and the effects of his actions on his victims. "Full potential" my ass!

So, like many of us suspected because of nonsensical excuses like "we turn the cameras off for 1 minute every night in this prison to reset the system", the DOJ has laid out another obvious clue that Epstein did not suicide himself in prison. That is probably not in the Epstein files, but there is a huge smoking gun that trump ordered him to be killed. The letter to Nassar certainly implies that he know the jig was up.

Hey B., Did anyone actually believe that BS. Guards asleep, video rest...? And hey everybody, how about some light holiday forensic death report from NPR:

I’d say if your name is in any way associated with Nassar and Epstein you have a problem.

I can’t wait to hear what Blanche, Bondi and the press sec will say when reporters invariably pounce on it.

Actually, I’m surprised that letter was released. Unless DOJ fucked up, which is entirely possible.

They are releasing more with less redactions because of the explosive blowback they got from everyone, left and right.

Yikes!

"Today's clips," paragraph one is worth ongoing mention. These "victims" WANT(!) their names revealed. This is how they get their power back. This is how they heal. I frankly have no idea what went on between Jean Carroll and the clown many years ago. It's two competing stories no one can prove, because Carroll chose that there should be no proof. But she decided many years later that publicizing it would help her with what she claimed was damage. These former girls, and now young women, WANT this insanity exposed. Withholding and "redacting" only helps one person, and he's not worthy of receiving anyone's help.

Hey FJ., I'm still wondering why these women haven't released their own books. Or a list themselves. I mean at this point they've pretty much been S.O.L. on anybody doing anything about this. It looks like they have good legal reps. so why not? I assume the Women whose names are already public might be able to do this. I mean might they even be able to sell their info. for BIG bucks that they could put towards some sort of recovery fund.

As with all musings and assumptions...I could be totally off base here. Thanks for reading this. Happy Holidaze.

You know, I don't get the sense they're looking for money. I think they want their self-respect back. They got badly scammed. A book is nothing. The clown will immediately say it's not true.

I don't think you're "totally off base." And I don't know any more about it than you do. But I see what's happening. They make themselves public, by name, and they want justice. They could have written books. Maybe some of them still will. Maybe once they have proof/truth on their side. They saw what Carroll got. Writing a book is the easy way out. They can't complain to Epstein. Maxwell will get pardoned soon enough. But look at that puffed up clown who conspicuously doesn't care about anyone on earth besides himself. I think it would make them feel better to knock him out. That's just what I think. They're brave, and they're relentless. I wouldn't want to use them any more than they've already been used, but it would make us all feel better to see him get knocked out. AND THIS IS WHAT THEY WANT! Who would begrudge them that?

🌟 “Lanterns of Truth in a Whirly-Wind Night”

When shadows get shouty and news gets all spun,

and “facts” get sold cheap like a two-for-one bun…

We grandmas and grandpas—yep, seasoned and wise—

lift lantern-phones high and we open our eyes.

We thank our dear veterans—our family, our pride—

who stood with the Allies and would not step aside.

They stared down the fascists, they paid the hard cost,

so freedom and voting would not get lost.

Now here comes a tyrant with tanks in a line,

on February 24, 2022—that brutal sign. 

The UN said “Aggression!”—the world raised its hand,

“Withdraw!” said the Assembly—that’s law of the land. 

And remember, dear neighbors, that promise once made—

Budapest, 1994, in ink unafraid:

Ukraine gave up nukes for assurances true—

Respect borders, no force, and no threats to pursue. 

We remember that memorandum—clear as can be—

So bullies can’t rewrite what the world’s meant to see. 🕊️🇺🇦

The Court in The Hague, with a serious tone,

said “Stop military ops”—let truth be shown. 

Yet propaganda keeps peddling its glittery glue,

while bills climb higher for me and for you—

insurance and groceries and rent due on time,

with slick “economic stories” dressed up in a rhyme.

So what do we do when the fog wants to stay?

We share what is real in a bright, brave way!

We follow Indy truth-tellers—transparent and tight—

then comment and boost them till views take flight.

A share is a spark, and a comment’s a flame,

and democracy’s muscle grows strong in its frame.

No FOX-style fright shows, no spin-doctor crew

outshines a brigade that keeps facts in view.

So here’s to Ukraine, standing stubborn and free—

and here’s to our vets and their legacy.

We’ll light up the scroll with reality’s might—

Lanterns of truth in a whirly-wind night! 🌪️✨

Jabba wants to go after Greenland because they “have a very small population." In other words, Canada and Mexico were too big for him to bully so he wants to achieve victory against a smaller country.
